His Beatitude Patriarch Ignatius IV (Hazim) of the Orthodox Church of Antioch and all the East was transfered today from Damascus to St Georges hospital in Beiruth for some health complications. His Beatitude is 91 years old. Some sources of the Church said that the health of His Beatitude is better, but still have to pass some medical tests.
We pray that the Lord in all his Divine glory and infinite mercy save, heal and bless our Orthodox Antiochian Patriarch keeping him for many other years to his Orthodox Antiochian flock and for all the One Holy, apostolic and catholic Orthodox Church, Eis polla eti despota Patriarch Ignatius IV.

Since you are here…
…we do have a small request. More and more people visit Orthodoxy and the World website.
However, resources for editorial are scarce.
In comparison to some mass media, we do not make paid subscription.
It is our deepest belief that preaching Christ for money is wrong.
Having said that, Pravmir provides daily articles from an autonomous news service,
weekly wall newspaper for churches, lectorium, photos, videos, hosting and servers.
Editors and translators work together towards one goal: to make our four websites possible -
Pravmir.ru, Neinvalid.ru, Matrony.ru and Pravmir.com. Therefore our request for help is understandable.
For example, 5 euros a month is it a lot or little?
A cup of coffee?
It is not that much for a family budget, but it is a significant amount for Pravmir.
If everyone reading Pravmir could donate 5 euros a month,
they would contribute greatly to our ability to spread the word of Christ,
Orthodoxy, life's purpose, family and society.
